Did you know that Yes! magazine is a non-profit? Yes, it is also
an independent award winning magazine supported by its readers.
Yes! magazine is seeking pitches, due February 1, 2018, for stories regarding the Housing Crisis. See the information below.
"The stories Yes! magazine are seeking will address these questions and more, such as:
- What is the American Dream home now?
- Should the goal should be homeownership or long-term stable rentals?
- Are people choosing creative forms of “family” as a way of addressing housing needs?
- Is multigenerational living all it’s cracked up to be?
- How are communities of color finding solutions to housing needs that also address other issues facing their communities?
- What kind of advocacy works to hold the line on raising rents, foreclosures, and up-market redevelopment?
- Can cooperative financing, development, and homeownership keep housing affordable?
- Where are millennials finding solutions for first-time homeownership?
- Are rural communities on the rebound as more people abandon prohibitively expensive urban centers?
- Is our concept of “home” changing how we view “work”?
- Does gentrification have to mean displacement?
- How can we ensure that our homes—building and living in them—aren’t contributing to environmental decay?
- How do other countries or cultures manage affordable housing?
- What are we going to do about the suburbs?
Do you have expertise, evidence, or insight into how the housing
economy has changed and how it can change for the better? Send us your
